grace's small neck space has solidified my intense desire to own This.

i have already been dreaming of names.

i am happy with it.

i like how the quilting turned out.
i really love it.

this was my first try with pin basting and i was happy with the result.

i liked how the quilt felt like it had some give to it, although that give resulted in a few puckers but you will NEVER notice once it is washed a few times.
i am sure it will be washed a lot because it is for miss s...
because she is 4... and swoon is white...

Pretty! I love the colors you chose. I also hadn't thought to serge the edges before attaching the binding. That sounds like a great idea when you know that you might not be able to get to binding it right away!

OH! your Swoon is absolutely dreamy! "Ferk" huh? Wow, I think my machine and half of the quilting tools are named that. Or at least that's what they THINK they're named cause it's the word they hear most often... Is that how yours got that name? :O)

Seriously, a (near) finished swoon really does make me swoon! This is just gorgeous, Nicke!! Do you have in mind your binding? And btw, your quilting looks awesome, though I totally understand the wish for a machine with a wider throat. Anyway, congrats on a beautiful quilt!

Wow!! Absolutely gorgeous, Nicke! I think the quilting looks fantastic, but I hear you on wanting to "upgrade" machines. Everytime I quilt a large quilt I start dreaming of one with a bigger opening...but then I look at the price and the dream is quilting killed :)
